This post is about places to visit in Vancouver. I wrote this post with readability in mind, so there may be some things I haven't covered. If you have any questions or want to know anything about the contents of the post, please ask in the comments or by e-mail, and we will let you know what we can answer. As with the topic of the last post, I will divide it into 4 parts for readability. The content of the posting was divided according to subjective activity standards (vehicles, food, nature, etc.). For information on other places to visit, click the links below. Places worth visiting on my recent trip to Vancouver, Canada #1 (Gastown Steam Clock, Flyover Canada, Vancouver Art Museum) #2 (Granville Island Public Market, Richmond Night Market, Lonsdale Quay Market) #3 Places worth visiting during my recent trip to Vancouver, Canada (Stanley Park/Vancouver Aquarium, English Bay/Sunset Beach, Queen Elizabeth Park, Bandusen Garden) #4 Places worth visiting on a recent trip to Vancouver, Canada (Growth Mountain, Capilano Suspension Bridge) Vancouver is not a fancy place to look. Although it is an ordinary place, there are many places where you can feel the characteristics of a different culture or personality . So, I tried to focus on the things I saw and felt in the places I went, rather than the simple explanation of what the places I went to were covered in the posts. "If the content of the blog was helpful, please like or comment, If you have any questions, please leave them in the comments and I will do my best to answer them." Let's start with the Gastown Steam Clock, Flyover, and Vancouver Art Museum, which we will cover in this post. Gastown Steam Clock Gastown Steam Clock is within a 10-minute walk (about 600m) if you're at Canada Place, and close enough to be within a 5-minute walk if you're near Waterfront Station. If you're near Canada Place, it's much faster to walk than to wait for a bus and catch it. In Vancouver, each bus usually takes at least 5 minutes or longer, so it is better get there on foot than you wait. The steam clock in Gastown seems to have become famous since it was first built in 1977 by Saunder (Raymond. L. Saunders). There are five steam clocks around the world made by Canadian horologist Saunder, one in Japan, one in the United States and three in Canada, all three in British Columbia (Vancouver, Whistler and Port Coquitlam). If you're curious, it might be fun to visit the rest of British Columbia. It's famous as one of the places to visit when visiting Vancouver, but it doesn't feel big or fancy. Its height is 3~3.5m, and when there are people watching from the side, it appears to be twice the height of a person. From a distance, it is quite small, so it does not look unattractive. In the evening, it is said that it is more beautiful because it blends in with the surrounding night view. In Vancouver, the sunset time in summer is around 9 o'clock, so you have to be in Gastown until very late. However, it cannot be said that it is safe to wander around late at night as in Korea, so it is recommended to choose wisely when visiting late at night. If you see that there are hardly any people on the street when you return to your accommodation after sunset, you may think it is because of the difference in lifestyle, but it may be due to security reasons. At the bottom of the watch, there is a history of the steam watch and detailed specifications of the watch, so if you want to know about the steam watch, it would be good to read it at least once. There is a Starbucks store behind the steam clock, and there are tables outside the store, so you can watch the steam clock while sipping tea or coffee. The steam clock sounds a whistle every 15 minutes and steam comes out every hour. The steam clock works with the steam engine inside, and the steam coming out of the steam engine is discharged to the outside through the chimney on the top of the clock. The part that moves the watch by steam is at the bottom and is made of transparent glass, so you can see the inside. In the video below, you can see the engine that operates the steam watch. For directions to Gastown's Steam Clock, click Directions on the map linked below to receive directions to the Google Maps app. Near the steam clock, there is a shop with cheap souvenirs among the places I've been to. It is Hudson House. Hudson House is a store named Souvenir Shop in the first map picture posted. There are no souvenirs that are only sold in certain tourist destinations (such as the Capilano Suspension Bridge, Flyover Canada, etc.), but there are many souvenirs that tourists usually buy. Magnets, tumblers, maple syrup, maple cookies, salmon jerky, etc. among the things you see often when you walk around various tourist spots are all available here. It was cheaper than Eating (Maple Syrup, Maple Cookies, Salmon Jerky) is much cheaper to buy at the supermarket or drugstore. If you are thinking of purchasing food as a souvenir, we recommend that you purchase it at a mart or drug store, and we will discuss souvenirs in a separate post, so please refer to the souvenir related posts for more details. What is unusual is that there is a North Face corner inside, which is on sale at a discount, so if you want something, you can look around and buy it. However, I cannot guarantee that it will be cheaper than what is sold in Korea. If you want to buy a souvenir, you can save time and money by looking at the steam clock and buying it as you pass by. There are many cafes selling brunch items near Gastown, just go to the area to the right of the steam clock on the Google map above. There was one brunch cafe I wanted to go to when I first made plans, but I couldn't go this time, and I tried brunch at another cafe with the introduction of an acquaintance living in Vancouver. Next time I will discuss the cafes I have been to in my food post. FlyOver Canada Flyover Canada is the only ride-type activity you can enjoy in Vancouver. If you want to go, Follow the road to the left of Canada Place and walk all the way up the stairs that read FlyOver Canada to the ticket office. After purchasing a ticket at the ticket office, go up the stairs to the right of the ticket office again to enter the attraction area. Basically, FlyOver Canada is shown, and additional videos seem to be operated in a form that is changed periodically. As you can see in the picture below, if you watch only one video, you can use it for $34 for an adult, and if you watch both, you can use it for $58. For reference, if you purchase a ticket from the ticket purchase webpage on the FlyOver Canada website, the link in blue text next to it can be purchased at a discount of about 10%. Attractions run in 15-minute increments, and there is a limit on the number of people who can enter each hour. You can save time by scheduling a time in advance and buying it online, or by going in advance to purchase a ticket for the time you want, and then going to another place you want to visit and going back on time. For FlyOver Canada, click FlyOver Canada on the far right of the map linked below to get directions to the Google Maps app. Alternatively, you can find FlyOver Canada by walking in front of the Canada Place building as shown on the map below. When you enter the entrance, you take a photo that provides a composite photo similar to when you use safari or T-Express at Everland. There is no charge for taking photos, and if you choose to take only printed or framed photos when you leave the attraction, you can pay to take the composited photos. After waiting in line to get in, when you go inside, you will watch the preview video for a while before going to the attraction. When you click on the link to go to the Flyover Canada homepage, you can see of the video played on the first web page as part of what you see when using the attraction. The content consists of taking a flight from Canada Place, exploring the natural landscapes of Canada and returning to Canada Place. It does not have a flat feel like what you see on a PC or smartphone, but the three-dimensional image filled with images and motion simulator seats no matter where you look up, down, left, There are effects, etc., so it feels more realistic - similar to the amusement ride called Space Tour in Everland in Korea. Just being able to see the whole of Canada's beautiful natural scenery in a short amount of time can give you enough satisfaction. However, those who feel dizzy when watching 3D games should be careful as it can cause dizziness because it gives the same feeling as if you are actually moving with the motion simulator seat and video . Vancouver Art Gallery The Vancouver Art Gallery is located on Howe-Robson Street, near downtown's most populous area. There are plenty of food trucks around Robson Square, so if you're looking for a place with a lot of food trucks, the Vancouver Art Gallery is easy to find. When you see a building like the first picture below, follow the road on the right to find the Vancouver Art Gallery.. If you want to find to go for directions to the Vancouver Museum of Art, click Directions on the map linked below to receive directions using the Google Maps app. Alternatively, you can find it by walking straight 800 meters along Howe Street from Canada Place as shown on the map below. The admission fee for the museum is $24 for adults, and its operating hours are 12:00 pm to 8:00 pm on Tuesdays and Fridays, and 10:00 am to 5 pm on other days of the week. The place to store your bags or coats before viewing the exhibition is just a little to the left when you look at the ticket sales office from the front. Please note that storage is free of charge. The Vancouver Art Gallery is one of the largest art galleries in Western Canada. Although it is said to be the largest in Canada, the building size is 3,850 m², which is small compared to the National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art in Korea, which has a total floor area of ​​34,990 m². The museum exhibition room has four floors, but the first and fourth floors were not operated during the digital art exhibition period, so only the second, third and second floors were exhibited, and it was possible to view the works in a sufficient amount of time for two hours. When I visited, it was mostly digital exhibitions during the exhibition period, and it was a pity that the works of art owned by the Vancouver Art Museum were not on display. However, since it is a digital work, it is composed of familiar and easy topics rather than difficult to understand, so I was able to watch it comfortably without feeling burdened. The ongoing exhibition under the theme of "THE IMITATION GAME: VISUAL CULTURE IN THE AGE OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE", located on the side where the viewing begins, deals with AI-related topics. How AI was portrayed in movies - such as Blade Runner and Ex Machina - and how it started to be used and developed in CG and graphics - CG used in The Lord of the Rings and Avengers - and the process of drawing pictures using robots Even people who feel that art is difficult because they can see the results of these works can easily watch it. (Please note that information about the exhibition contents and voice guidance are conducted in English) "THE IMITATION GAME: VISUAL CULTURE IN THE AGE OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE" is scheduled to be on display until October 23, 2022, so if you visit Vancouver during this period, it is not bad to see it at least once. In addition, there are also exhibits of writings and drawings by local students aged 5 to 18 in the Vancouver area under the themes of Dictionary Exhibition, Kinetic Art, Moving Works, and Kids Take Over. The video below shows the movement of the kinetic art work on display. If you would like to check the exhibits in progress during your visit to Vancouver, please click on the link to view the Vancouver Museum of Art website. This post ends here. Please look forward to the next post. #canada #vancouver #vancouvertravel #vancouver_things #overseas travel #overseas #travel_reviews #gastown #steam clock #flyover #vancouverart #museum #canada #vancouver #gastown #steamclock #flyover_canada #travel #recommand #place #reviews

This post is about the souvenirs you can buy in Vancouver and how to buy them. I wrote this post with readability in mind, so there may be some things I haven't covered. If you have any questions or want to know about the contents of the post, please ask in the comments or by e-mail, and we will let you know what we can answer. The most commonly recommended souvenirs or things to buy in Vancouver are eating things. Of course, there are other things to buy, but I haven't bought them on this trip, so I'll focus on the things I've purchased and only briefly cover the things I've checked for other things. Recently, it is possible to purchase products sold overseas by using overseas direct or overseas purchasing agencies, so you can purchase similar products in Korea, although not identical to those sold in Canada. You can purchase similar types of souvenirs in Korea without having to buy them in Vancouver. For Canadian souvenirs, which are mainly edible souvenirs, you can purchase the same or similar products - except for Canadian ice wines - on the website or offline of department stores and supermarkets. Of course, if you use an overseas purchasing agent, overseas direct purchase, or purchase at the import section of an offline store, the price is higher than that purchased at a travel destination, but you can purchase it because the cost of delivery is included. Among the items I have purchased, other than Smoked Salmon Jerky - Excluded because wine can only be brought in one bottle with a capacity of 1L or less - Products related to maple syrup (syrup, biscuit, fudge, etc.) The bulk and weight burden is high when purchasing. Just because the price is cheap, I don't think it's necessary to go through the trouble of buying and packing more than you need for a gift or use yourself, and you don't have to worry about bringing heavy luggage. Smoked Salmon Jerky is a good choice if you are considering buying it for a gift, and considering the skin and weight, although it is a bit expensive and will be buying a lot. If you give up the volume and weight and consider the price a lot, we recommend purchasing a small amount of maple syrup in a glass bottle. "If the content of the blog was helpful, please like or comment, If you have any questions, please leave them in the comments and I will do my best to answer them." So, in this post, I'll start with what to buy as a souvenir. Maple Syrup If you look on the Internet, there are a lot of information about maple syrup that requires purchasing a Turkish Hill product or about Turkish Hill Maple Syrup. Turkey Hill refers to the brand that makes maple syrup in Quebec, and I could not find any maple syrup bearing the Turkey Hill trademark in Vancouver. I went to several supermarkets, drug stores, and public markets to buy Turkish Hill products in the city, but I couldn't find a place that sold Turkish Hill products in downtown Vancouver. However, the maple syrup sold in duty-free shops at the airport is not labeled with Turkey Hill, but the description of Turkey Hill is attached to each product displayed and sold. Even though it is not a Turkish Hill product, if you look at this, it means that there is no difference from the raw material of maple syrup produced in Quebec, or it is guessed that it is sold with raw material produced in Turkey Hill. Maple syrup purchased at drug stores in downtown is also printed on the front label as Grade A 100% maple syrup, just like the ones sold at duty-free shops. It looks like you don't have to worry too much. The picture below was purchased as a gift for acquaintances. It has the smallest capacity among maple syrups, 50ml, and it is maple syrup in a glass bottle. The capacity is only 50ml, but it weighs 186g, probably because the container is a glass bottle. The shape of the bottle is in the shape of a maple leaf, and it looks good when displayed in a glass bottle with brown maple syrup, so I think it's good for a gift. In the photo below, on the left is maple syrup with a capacity of 50ml in a glass bottle, measuring 78.8mm x 113.3mm x 30mm (width x length x thickness), and weighing 186g. It's about the size of an adult palm and slightly smaller than the palm of your hand. The price is said to be discounted at the drugstore where I bought it, so I bought it at $2.99 ​​per piece, but you can buy a product with the same capacity for about $5-6 at stores that sell other souvenirs in the city. In the photo below, on the right is maple syrup with a capacity of 250ml in a can, measuring 71.3mm x 135.9mm x 34.1mm (width x length x thickness), and weighing 388g. The price was not on a discount sale, I bought it for $11.99. < Types of Vancouver Maple Syrup > Since it is in a glass bottle, if you put it in a carrier, the bottle may break and the syrup may leak out. If you buy cosmetics at the duty-free shop when you travel, they will give you several layers of packaging. If you use some of them or bring an air cap in your suitcase when you go, it can be useful to bring syrup in a glass bottle. Maple syrup is available in plastic containers in addition to the products pictured above, and comes in various capacities such as 50ml, 100ml, 250ml, and 500ml. When I went to the drugstore, if there was a product in a 100ml plastic container, I would have purchased it, but unfortunately I couldn't find it. Since there are cases where they are placed on a shelf and sold at a sale, it seems that there may be fewer types available for purchase at different times of the year. I went to several drugstores or marts to buy maple syrup, but each store sells the same, so if you do not find the type of product you want to purchase when you visit, don't bother visiting another store and buy it at the place you visited. I recommend it. For the best places to buy each product , please refer to the recommended places to buy each souvenir at the end of this post . Honey As a souvenir worth buying in Canada, I was surprised by what I was looking for. As of 2020, honey is ranked 11th in the world, and the quality of honey produced in Canada is said to be good. I've only bought one for home use since I heard that honey is good. I bought it at Safeway Mart, and the price is $5.99 - it is the price printed on the purchase receipt, but since there is no separate tax recorded, it is assumed that the item does not include tax or includes tax at the mart. The size is slightly smaller than the 500ml bottled water PET, and the weight is 375g, so it feels heavy when you hold it. Since the container is made of PET, it is unlikely to be damaged even if it is sent as checked baggage, but since it is heavy, it can be burdensome if you purchase a lot and put it in a suitcase. It is recommended to buy only a few. < Vancouver Honey > Items sold as souvenirs weigh at least 200g, so even if you put only 5 pieces, the weight increases by 1kg. The suitcase, which was about 15-16kg when leaving the country, weighed more than 20kg with maple syrup, wine, and honey when it returned. You need to be careful because additional fares will be incurred if you exceed the standard of allowable checked baggage on the flight you are using. For reference, in the case of Korean Air, up to one checked baggage weighing 23kg per person in Economy Class is free, and in the case of AirCanada I used, up to two pieces of checked baggage weighing 23kg per person were free. Smoked Salmon Jerky It is similar to beef or pork jerky, but meat or processed meat products are prohibited items, and live or frozen/refrigerated seafood is also prohibited. Available. So, one of the things that people who have been to Canada buy or recommend as a souvenir is salmon jerky. When I bought and traveled, the only product I ate at the hotel was the original, so if I explain it based on the original, it is similar to beef jerky in taste and texture, but it is softer than beef jerky, and although it is seasoned in taste, it tastes like fish - a bit fishy. Taste - you can feel it. I can't explain the other flavors because I didn't buy them, but people may have different likes and dislikes. When you open the package, it is cut into a suitable size for holding by hand, so it is easy to take out and eat, and it has a slightly salty taste by the original standard, so it is suitable to eat as a side dish with alcohol like jerky. Salmon jerky, available in Vancouver, comes in four flavors, identifiable by the color of the wrapping paper. Green is Original, red is Maple flavor, brown is Teriyaki flavor, and orange is Pepper flavor. I bought it at the drug store, and you can also buy it at the souvenir shop. The price sold at the drugstore is $8.49 based on the original, weighs 90g, and is about the size of A5 copy paper. The photo below is a photo of the original flavor. < Vancouver Salmon Jerky > Although it is large in size, it is thin and vacuum-packed, so even if you just put it in a carrier, the packaging will not be damaged. However, it should be taken into account that there may be differences in taste. Maple Leaf Biscuit I bought Maple Biscuits out of curiosity when I first saw them at a souvenir shop while wandering around downtown. I bought it at the mart I went to find maple syrup, and it was on sale at a discount, so I bought it for $5.99 (tax included). It weighs 300g, which is quite heavy, and it feels quite heavy when you lift the box. The box is about the size of a copy paper B5. The biscuits are contained in 4 separate compartments in plastic blisters wrapped in plastic in a paper box. The cookie is shaped like the picture on the outside of the box, with biscuits on the front and back like an Oreo, and cream with a hint of maple syrup in the middle. The citrus is soft, but if you bite it without taking a bite, the crumbs fall off, and although it tastes like maple syrup, it's not as sweet as syrup. It's good to eat as a snack, and it's a bit crumbly, so it's better to eat it with milk rather than just eating it. < Vancouver Maple Cookies > It is the largest in terms of weight and size, so it is burdensome to purchase as a gift. If there is a small size, I tried to buy it as a gift, but 300g was the smallest capacity. Not bad to buy one or two for personal consumption. Maple Fudge According to the description of fudge, it is a kind of soft candy made of sugar, butter and chocolate. It's actually softer than candy, and tastes like slightly melted chocolate or caramel. Maple Fudge was purchased at the duty-free shop at the airport. I had no intention of buying it when I was in the city, but I bought it because I had to match the amount of coins I had left at the duty-free shop to use it. I bought it at a duty-free shop, so I bought it for $9.9 and bought it at a higher price than the price you can buy in the city, and it has a heavy weight of 210g for its size. The packaging is similar to Maple Biscuits, except that they are individually wrapped in plastic blisters inside a paper box. Since it is a kind of candy, it seems that the fudge is individually wrapped because it can stick to each other if it melts depending on the storage temperature. The appearance of the fudge is the same as the picture on the outside of the box, but if pressed while melted, it will not have a pretty shape like the picture. It does not harden even when put in the refrigerator, so the texture is quite soft, but it is very sweet, so it is just right to eat it with one cup of coffee - without sugar or syrup - rather than eating it as a snack. < Vancouver Maple Fudge > Naver also sells similar products, but with the same capacity and twice the price. If you have never eaten fudge and want to taste it, you can buy one, but it is not suitable for snacks, so it is not a bad idea to buy another and eat it in Korea. Ice Wine Canada is one of the three largest producers of ice wine in the world, and ice wine is one of Canada's famous specialties. Although regular wines can be purchased cheaply at convenience stores, marts, and department stores for less than 10,000 won, ice wines are usually sold for 20,000 to 30,000 or more, so the price is on the high side. The typical ice wines sold in Canada are the Vidal and Reisling varieties. Vidal is a cultivar that grows in Canada and New York, USA, and Riesling is a cultivar from Germany, but I heard that it is also grown in Canada. I bought the Reisling variety Inniskillin from the downtown Liquor Store, one of the most famous brands of Canadian ice wines. The wine I bought was a small bottle, sold for $29.99 ($34.59 including tax) in a 200ml bottle. If it had a larger capacity, I would have bought it in a larger capacity, but the place I went to - BC Liquor Store may not have any products depending on the branch - only a small capacity. Most of the stores in the city were small-capacity ice wines, and Inniskillin had only a small-capacity, whereas some of the products sold in duty-free shops had large-capacity products. So, if you are considering a large capacity ice wine, I recommend buying it at a duty-free shop. Assuming the same capacity, the sales price of the duty-free shop is high, but it is impossible to purchase because there is no stock in the city or the selection is small. it had been The price of 375 ml of Vidal variety Inniskillin sold in duty free stores was $60.5. When comparing the price of the Vidal variety and the Reisling variety of the same brand, the price of the Reisling variety is higher - more than $10 difference compared to the same capacity - Please refer to it when purchasing. < Vancouver Ice Wine, Inniskillin > Others (magnet, tumbler, lululemon, etc.) Other travel souvenirs worth shopping include Canadian clothing brand Roots and lululemon, popular in the US and Canada. I've never been to the Roots store in Korea, so it's difficult to compare the price accurately, but when I saw the price tag in the store, I felt that the price level I felt in Vancouver was reflected. Looking at the selling price alone, it is difficult to buy cheaper than when purchasing in Korea, but I thought that if I could get a tax refund after purchase, I would be able to purchase it at a slightly cheaper price than buying in Korea. Also, lululemon is a famous brand for yoga wear, and it sells not only yoga clothes, but also items such as windproof jackets that can be worn in everyday life, so it's not bad to come and see something worth buying. In addition, key chains, magnets, and tumblers are also worth considering. In the case of magnets, when you personally go on a trip, you buy souvenirs to remember the places you visited. This is a personal preference and you may not agree with the need to purchase. The photos below are one each from the Capilano Suspension Bridge and one from the souvenir shop. What I bought at the Capilano Suspension Bridge didn't sell anywhere else - I didn't see it at the gift shop at the Granville Island Public Market on my first trip - followed by purchases. And among the things I saw while walking around some shops in the city, I thought the tumbler that can keep warm/cool was good. Although the tumbler has the same shape, the external design showed differences in color, coating, and wrapped material, so basically it looked like a product from the same place. In the case of thermal insulation/cooling tumblers, many products sold in Korea only keep the warmth for about 6 hours, but the one sold in Vancouver keeps the temperature warm for 12 hours, and the price is not expensive, so I thought it was a good souvenir to buy. It is sold in various places such as Flyover Canada, Vancouver Aquarium, and other souvenir shops, but the design is slightly different and the function is the same, so you can choose the product with the design you like. The typical price is $24.99, assuming you're buying it downtown. Recommended places to buy souvenirs Basically, as mentioned briefly above, it is a good way to save money and to buy souvenirs from duty free shops except for ice wine. I was shocked to see the prices sold at duty free shops after purchasing souvenirs for personal consumption and gifts at duty free shops and thinking that they are heavy and bulky to carry around. The reason is that if you look at the price of goods sold at a duty-free shop, the price was thought to mean that the tax was not calculated separately, rather than that it was exempted from tax as in the meaning of duty-free. For example, in the case of the 50ml capacity maple syrup in the glass bottle mentioned above, it was $2.99 ​​cheap when purchased in the city, but it is sold at about $5 at a souvenir shop. Although it is slightly different, it was higher than the price sold in the city plus tax (PST, GST). Not just maple syrup, but maple biscuits, maple fudge, smoked salmon jerky, tumblers, and everything else I knew was going to sell downtown was in a similar situation. So, even if you don't have a shopping schedule in the city, it is essential to stop by at least once in the middle of the city and buy in the city. In terms of cost, you can even buy it for half the price than buying it at a duty-free shop. From now on, we will introduce the recommended places to purchase souvenirs. Wandering around for shopping This is my personal opinion, so you may find a better place in terms of price or convenience than the ones listed below. 1. London Drugs This is a place where you can buy maple syrup, salmon jerky, maple biscuit, maple fudge, etc., and I bought maple syrup and salmon jerky here. There are several stores in the city, and the size of each store is different, but since there may or may not be many items you are looking for in a small store, we recommend a store in the heart of Downtown as a rule. The store opposite the Vancouver City Center station was the biggest I've been to. 2. Hudson House This is the place where you can purchase magnets, warm/cool tumblers , maple syrup, maple biscuits, maple fudge, smoked salmon jerky, and more. Aside from that, they also sell a variety of souvenirs, so it's worth exploring to see if there's anything else worth buying. In my personal opinion, it's a good place to buy things other than eating like a magnet or a tumbler. Maple syrup related products were cheaper to buy from London Drugs. 3. BC Liquor Store This is a place where you can buy spirits (whiskey, vodka, etc.), wine, and ice wine . In Vancouver, alcoholic beverages cannot be served in general stores (convenience stores, etc.). Therefore, all alcoholic beverages are sold only in licensed Liquor Stores and duty-free shops. (I will talk about it when I post food related content later, but beer is only available at the Liquor Store) There are two main types of Liquor Stores in Vancouver, one is the BC Liquor Store run by the provincial government shown in the picture below, and the other is the Liquor Store operated by individuals with a license. I've been to the BC Liquor Store, and the prices are lower than those sold in other Liquor Stores, so if you're buying ice wine, visit the BC Liquor Store. Another reason to recommend BC Liquor Store is that it has a large selection of wines compared to other Liquor Stores - based on personal visit experience, so there may be differences between Liquor Store stores. BC Liquor Store has 4 stores in Downtown, and the size of each store is different, so you may not find the wine you are looking for. In my experience of visiting three stores, the one across from the Waterfront station was the largest and had a lot of variety. This post ends here. I hope this post will be helpful to those who are planning a trip to Vancouver or are traveling.

What I will introduce this time is how to use a browser that is faster than Chrome and receive cryptocurrency for free. Thanks to the Chromium project, one of Google's open source projects, many types of browsers are emerging. There are browsers that are fundamentally similar to Google's Chrome browser by adding their own know-how to each browser making company using the Chromium project, but have better features than the Chrome browser with differentiated functions. The browser covered in this introduction is a browser based on Chromium and the Blink engine. This browser was developed by Brave Software, a company founded by the developers of JavaScript and Mozilla Foundation founders Brandon Ike and Brian Bondi. It is not well known in Korea, but after using it for a few months, I feel that it is a good browser. First of all, it is not up to the level introduced by the Brave browser homepage, but you can feel that it is generally faster than Chrome or other browsers. It can't be said that loading is fast on all websites, but since the Brave browser blocks most ads by default, once it loads, you can use it comfortably overall from then on. The content to be introduced this time is not the Brave browser and it is about the cryptocurrency (BAT: Basic Attension Token), the introduction of the browser will be limited to this, and then we will get to the point. If you turn on Brave Rewards in the Brave web browser, you will receive an advertisement as a push notification, and users can earn Basic Attention Tokens (BAT) simply by clicking and viewing the advertisement. When you create an account on Uphold, you can move the accumulated tokens, exchange them with other cryptocurrencies, and transfer them to the other cryptocurrency exchange. The table of contents for this post is as follows: How to install Brave browser How to set preferences for the Brave browser Brave browser performance Get Crypto (BAT) Rewards Connecting a cryptocurrency wallet (Wallet) "If the content of the blog was helpful, please share or comment" If you have any questions or inquiries regarding the contents of the post, please ask in the comments and we will answer them . 1. How to install Brave browser To install the Brave browser, go to the Brave official site ( https://brave.com/en/ ) and click ' Download Brave ' to install it. To install, click the installation file after downloading and run it. You can complete the installation by clicking the Next button in the order that appears on the screen. The following screen is the screen when the browser is launched after installation is complete. Usage is not much different from Chrome or Edge browsers. 2. How to configure the Brave browser After installing the browser, to view advertisements and receive Basic Attention Token (BAT) as a reward, select Settings from the pop-up that appears when you click the Settings button in the upper right corner to enter the preferences screen. Select Brave Rewards from the menu on the left and activate 'Brave Rewards Ads'. If you want to receive a lot of rewards, you can set the maximum number of ads to be displayed to '10 ads per hour'. There aren't many advertisers yet, so even if you set it to 10, you won't get 10 at an hour. Even though it is set to 10, there are many cases where none of the ads appear in an hour . < Ad-related settings in Brave browser > 3. Brave browser performance The Brave website advertises that it is 3 times faster than Chrome and that it can protect privacy. When accessing Naver.com, the Chrome browser took 5.68 seconds to complete loading, and the Brave browser took 3.65 seconds. One of the strengths of the Brave browser is ad blocking and privacy protection. Ads and tracker blocking are enabled by default when using the browser, so you can use it with ads removed when accessing general websites or watching YouTube. You will be able to save the data used at the time. Trackers and ad blockers are found to be particularly useful on mobile devices, where data usage may be limited . < Ad blocking and data saving content and performance comparison of Brave browser > 4. Get Crypto (BAT) Rewards First, let's talk about what cryptocurrency (BAT) is. Basic Attention Token (BAT) is a coin that is included in the portfolio of Grayscale Investment, a leading American cryptocurrency trust fund investment company, and is based on WEB 3.0 . Currently, you can trade on the other cryptocurrency exchange, and if WEB 3.0 becomes popular, the value of BAT acquired as a reward may increase. The current value of Basic Attention Token (BAT) is around $0.3 per 1 BAT, and has previously risen to a maximum of $1.9. If you set up your Brave browser to view advertisements, you can receive a notification about the advertisement, and when you click on the advertisement received as a notification, you can receive Basic Attention Token (BAT) depending on the amount of time or the type of advertisement. It appears as a notification regardless of the browser, so it doesn't affect browser performance. Advertisements can be rewarded by clicking, and if you do not want to be rewarded, you do not need to click. For about a month, when I was notified of an advertisement, I was rewarded for clicking on an advertisement, and when I saw 125 advertisements in a month, I was paid 1.292 BAT. < Ad notification and reward payment history in Brave browser > So far, not many tokens have been accumulated by clicking on advertisements, but unlike cash, if the value rises like stocks, it is an automatic investment through advertising clicks because the cash value can increase even though it is the same amount of cryptocurrency. In the case of cryptocurrency, direct investment can be burdensome because it is classified as a risky asset rather than a stock in terms of investment. However, if you use the Brave browser, you can get the effect of investing in cryptocurrency without direct investment, so even those who are interested in cryptocurrency but feel burdened by investing can invest without burden. 5. Connecting a cryptocurrency wallet (Wallet) We provide a wallet to store Basic Attention Tokens (BAT) within Brave . If you create a wallet in the browser, you can restore it to Memonic when you delete and reinstall the browser or install the browser on another computer . It provides a function of linking with external sites such as Uphold and Gemini, so you can transfer your tokens to other places by creating an account and creating a wallet. However, since the value of Basic Attention Token (BAT) is still low, it may be better to keep it only in the wallet provided by Brave because a large amount is required even if it is exchanged for other cryptocurrencies. If you want to send tokens paid to an external exchange, you can send them without a transaction fee by using two places that provide linkage in your browser. < Linking Uphold and Gemini> This post ends here.

Sources and Summary of Japan's Lifting of Entry Restrictions On September 30, 2022, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Japan announced on the website of the Ministry of External Affairs that it would lift restrictions on inspections upon arrival at quarantine stations, self-quarantine at home or accommodation, and refraining from using public transportation. According to the notice, persons entering Japan as of 00:00 on October 11, 2022 must have a valid COVID-19 vaccination certificate (3 doses) on the World Health Organization (WHO) urgent use list or from the country/region of origin. You just need to present proof of negative results of a COVID-19 test conducted within 72 hours prior to departure. Detailed information published by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Japan can be found on the Japanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs' Consular Service (https://www.mofa.go.jp/ca/fna/page4e_001053.html). With the lifting of Japan's entry restrictions, people who have been thinking about or planning to travel to Japan will be able to travel freely in two years.

Comparison of the changed entry restrictions in Japan This is a comparison of entry restrictions before and after October 11, 2022. What has improved with the lifting of Japan's entry restrictions With the lifting of Japan's entry restrictions, citizens of visa-free (visa-waiver) countries are not required to issue a visa, even if they are not traveling as a group. < Notice regarding resumption of Japanese visa exemption (visa exemption) > In addition, those who have received the vaccine up to the 3rd time do not need to submit a certificate of negative COVID-19 test result (PCR test negative certificate) performed within 72 hours before entering the country and PCR test after entering the country. Those who have not received the 3rd dose of the vaccine must submit a certificate of negative COVID-19 test result within 72 hours prior to entry. Also, the restriction on the number of arrivals to 50,000 per day has been lifted, so you only need to register your vaccination certificate and MySOS, which is similar to the Q-Code you register before entering Korea in Korea, so it is similar to when you travel to Japan before the outbreak of Corona 19. Of course, during the Fast Track registration process, a separate quarantine system must be followed for symptomatic individuals. Things to prepare when entering Japan 1. Certificate of COVID-19 vaccination completed by the 3rd round Arrivals entering Japan must submit a COVID-19 vaccination certificate or COVID-19 negative test result, which must be a certificate issued by a government or public institution or an inoculation record issued by a medical institution. Or, it must be a document that is recognized as equivalent. The COVID-19 vaccination certificate must be written in Japanese or English, and items such as name, date of birth, vaccine name/manufacturer, vaccination date, and number of vaccinations must be written in Japanese or English. * Even if the certificate does not include the date of birth, it may still be considered valid if it contains a passport number or other information that can be used to verify that the vaccination certificate is yours. * If the vaccination certificate is in a language other than Japanese or English, it will be considered valid if a Japanese or English translation can be attached and the contents can be verified. The types of COVID-19 vaccines recognized in Japan are: Pfizer Moderna AstraZeneca Janssen Bharat Biotech Novavax Most vaccines vaccinated in Korea are accepted, so if you have completed the 3rd dose and have a certificate in English or Japanese, there is no problem. 2. Quarantine procedures before entry Filling out the questionnaire writing a pledge Check the vaccination certificate or check the test certificate within 72 hours before departure MySOS installation and login 3. Register for Fast Track (My SOS) Pre-registration must be completed on MySOS Web or MySOS app at least 6 hours before the scheduled arrival date of the boarding flight. Quarantine measures vary depending on the place of stay before entering the country and the presence or absence of the third vaccination. Detailed quarantine measures can be found on the website of the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare ( https://www.hco.mhlw.go.jp/ ). You can check the applicable quarantine measures by selecting the region and country of residence on the homepage and selecting information about the vaccine you have been vaccinated. < Quarantine measures that vary depending on the place of stay before entering the country and the presence or absence of the third vaccination > If the My SOS mobile application is not installed, you can download it by clicking the image below for each smartphone you are using. Step 1. Install and run MySOS app Click the image corresponding to the smartphone you are using from the link above to download and install the app. Run the downloaded app and tap the 'Pre-registration for quarantine procedure' button.

Sources and Summary of Changes to Entering Procedures Related to COVID-19 At the regular briefing of the Central Disaster and Safety Countermeasures Headquarters on September 30, 2022, post-entry testing was maintained for early detection of imported confirmed cases and imported mutations. It has been announced that it will suspend the mandatory PCR test on the first day after entry in consideration of several factors, such as a decrease in the number of countries and the exemption of testing in most OECD countries. It is said that the changed entry procedure will be applied to those who enter the country at 00:00 on October 1, 2022. Detailed information related to the quarantine exemption, which is changed according to the situation, can be found in the press release or notice on the Korea Centers for Disease Control and Prevention website (https://kdca.go.kr ). With the cessation of the PCR mandatory test after entry, most restrictions have been removed for both Koreans and foreigners returning from overseas travel when entering Korea. Table of Contents of Posting Changes to Immigration Procedures Related to COVID-19 Comparison of Changed Immigration Procedures The improvement is due to the suspension of the mandatory PCR test upon entry. How to register for the quarantine information pre-entry system (Q-Code) and how to use the airport inspection center "If the content of the blog was helpful, please like or comment" If you have any questions or inquiries regarding the contents of the post, please ask in the comments and we will answer them . Comparison of Changed Immigration Procedures Changes before and after October 1, 2022 include: The improvement is due to the suspension of the mandatory PCR test upon entry. The main content related to this change of entry procedure is that the PCR mandatory test, which must be done within 1 day after entry, has been stopped. Foreigners' visits to Korea have become a little easier since they have no longer had to pay about $100 on their own. Korean nationals can get the test free of charge at the public health center, but if the arrival date is on a weekend or weekday evening, it is difficult to visit the health center on the same day to receive the test. So, in the case of a person who has to visit the next day and does not have time, there is no symptom, but he had to waste unnecessary time because he had to undergo a mandatory test. However, if there are no symptoms, there is no need for testing, so it may be helpful for people who do not have time to spare. Of course, it can be seen that the minimum quarantine system and measures necessary for entry from overseas are maintained because the existing quarantine system must be followed for symptomatic persons during the quarantine information pre-registration process. How to register for the quarantine information pre-entry system (Q-Code) and how to use the airport inspection center 1. Quarantine information pre-entry system (Q-Code) registration If you register the quarantine information pre-entry system (Q-code) before entering the country, you can quickly pass through the quarantine step you have to go through after getting off the plane.

코로나19와 관련하여 변경된 입국 절차에 대한 출처 및 요약 내용 2022년 9월 30일 코로나19 중앙재난안전대책본부의 정례 브리핑에서 해외 유입 확진자 및 유입 변이 조기 발견을 위해서 입국 후 검사를 유지하고 있었지만 해외 유입 확진율이 8월 1.3%에서 9월 0.9%로 감소하고, OECD 대다수 국가에서 검사를 면제하는 등 여러 요인들을 고려해서 입국 후 1일 차 PCR 의무 검사를 중단한다고 발표했습니다. 변경된 입국 절차는 2022년 10월 1일 0시에 입국하는 사람들부터 적용된다고 합니다. 상황에 따라 변경되는 검역 면제와 관련된 자세한 정보는 질병관리본부 홈페이지 (https://kdca.go.kr)의 보도자료 또는 공지사항에서 확인할 수 있습니다. 이번 입국 후 PCR 의무 검사 중단으로 해외 여행 후 귀국하는 내국인, 외국인 모두 한국에 입국할 때 대부분의 제한이 없어졌습니다. 코로나19와 관련하여 변경된 입국 절차 포스팅의 목차 변경된 입국 절차 비교 입국시 PCR 의무 검사 중단으로 좋아진 점 검역정보 사전입력시스템(Q-Code) 등록 방법과 공항 검사 센터 이용방법 " 블로그 내용이 도움이 되셨다면 공감이나 댓글을 부탁드립니다 " 포스팅 내용과 관련하여 궁금하거나 문의할 내용이 있으면 댓글로 질문하면 답변드리도록 하겠습니다. 변경된 입국 절차 비교 2022년 10월 1일 이전과 이후의 변경 사항은 다음과 같습니다. 입국시 PCR 의무 검사 중단으로 좋아진 점 이번 입국 절차 변경과 관련된 주요 내용은 입국 후 1일 이내에 해야 하는 PCR 의무 검사가 중단되었다는 것입니다. 외국인의 경우 약 10만원 정도의 비용을 자비로 부담해야 했던 것이 없어졌기 때문에 외국인의 한국 방문이 조금 더 수월해졌습니다. 내국인은 보건소에서 무료로 검사를 받을 수 있지만 입국일이 주말이거나 또는 평일 저녁 시간인 경우 당일에 보건소에 방문해서 검사를 받기 어렵습니다. 그래서 다음 날 방문해야 하는데 시간적인 여유가 없는 사람의 경우 증상이 없지만 의무적으로 검사를 받아야 했기 때문에 불필요한 시간을 낭비해야만 했습니다. 하지만 증상이 없다면 검사를 할 필요가 없어졌기 때문에 시간적인 여유가 없는 사람에게 도움이 될 수 있을 것으로 보입니다. 물론, 검역정보 사전 등록 과정에서 증상이 있는 유증상자의 경우 기존의 검역 체계를 따라야 하기 때문에 해외에서 입국할 때 필요한 최소한의 검역 체계 및 조치는 유지된다고 볼 수 있습니다. 검역정보 사전입력시스템(Q-Code) 등록 방법과 공항 검사센터 이용 방법 1. 검역정보 사전입력시스템(Q-Code) 등록 입국 전 검역정보 사전입력시스템(Q-code)을 등록하면 비행기에서 내린 후 거쳐야 하는 검역단계를 빠르게 통과할 수 있습니다. 입국 전 등록을 하지 않은 경우 그 자리에서 양식을 작성하기 위해 상당한 시간이 소요되지만 사전에 등록을 한 경우에는 검역소에 발급받은 QR코드를 제출하면 통지서와 검역확인증을 5분 이내에 받을 수 있습니다. 질병관리본부 검역정보 사전입력시스템(Q-Code) 등록은 https://cov19ent.kdca.go.kr/cpassportal/에서 할 수 있습니다. 검역정보 사전입력시스템 등록은 "01. 이용약관 동의 > 02. 이메일 입력 > 03. 여권정보 입력 > 04. 입국 및 체류정보 입력 > 05. 검역정보 입력 > 06 . 건강상태 입력 > 07. 입력정보 확인 > 08.QR코드 발급" 순서로 진행되며, 순서는 아래 캡쳐를 참고하세요. < 검역정보 사전입력시스템 등록 방법 > 입력이 완료되면 등록 시 작성하신 이메일 주소로 QR코드가 담긴 이메일을 받게 되며, 발급받은 QR코드를 입국시 검역소에 제출하면 됩니다. 검역정보 사전입력시스템에 입력한 건강상태에 따라 유증상자와 무증상자로 구분하는데 유증상자는 검사결과에 따라 절차가 다르고, 무증상자는 내국인(장기체류외국인 포함)과 단기체류외국인에 따라 준수해야 하는 절차가 다릅니다. 유증상자인 경우 입국장 또는 검역소 격리시설에서 PCR검사 > 검사결과가 음성인 경우 (무증상자 절차와 동일하지만 입국 후 1일차 PCR 검사는 완료한 것으로 함) 입국장 또는 검역소 격리시설에서 PCR검사 > 검사결과가 양성인 경우 (자택 또는 병원 또는 생활치료센터로 이송) 무증상자인 경우 내국인 또는 장기체류외국인 > 보건소에서 PCR 검사 > 양성인 경우 격리 > 음성인 경우 6~7일차 RAT 권고 단기체류외국인 > 공항 검사센터 또는 의료기관에서 PCR 검사 > 양성인 경우 격리 > 음성인 경우 6~7일차 RAT 권고 2. 공항 검사 센터 이용 방법 (PCR 검사) 인천공항 검사센터에서 검사하면 유료(한화 8만원)이며, Safe2Go Pass로 시간을 예약하고 지정된 시간에 방문하여 검사를 받거나, 예약없이 방문하면 대기 후 검사를 받을 수 있습니다. 인천공항에는 제1여객터미널과 제2여객터미널에 병원 별로 1개씩 총 4개의 검사소가 있습니다. 인천국제공항에 있는 검문사센터 홈페이지 (https://safe2gopass.com)는 PC나 스마트폰의 웹브라우저를 통해 접속할 수 있습니다. 공항검사장에서 오전에 검사를 하면 오후에 결과를 받을 수 있고, 오후에 검사하면 검사 시간에 따라 다음날 받을 수도 있습니다. 검사 결과는 이메일로 발송하는 것이 기본이고, 필요시 검사센터에서 출력할 수도 있습니다. 인천공항 제1여객터미널 검사센터 위치는 아래 지도 이미지를 참고해주세요. 인천국제공항 제1여객터미널에서 검사 센터로 가는 방법 인천국제공항 제1여객터미널에서 하차 후 KFC 옆 에스컬레이터를 타고 2층으로 올라간다. 에스컬레이터에서 내린 후 오른쪽 바닥에 있는 파란색 화살표를 따라간다 왼쪽에 있는 공항 터미널의 첫 번째 출구로 나간다. 출구로 나가면 좌우에 공항 검문소가 하나씩 있습니다 인천공항 공항검사센터(명지병원)로 가는 방법은 인천공항 제1터미널 지하철역에서 공항검사센터(명지병원)까지 가는 방법을 촬영한 아래 사진을 참고해주세요. < 인천공항 제1여객터미널 검사센터 가는 방법 > 검사 센터는 인바운드(입국) 검사 센터와 아웃바운드(출국) 검사 센터의 두 건물로 나뉘어 있습니다. 해외에서 입국한 사람은 ​​인바운드 검사 센터 건물로 들어가야 합니다. 포스팅에서 다룬 내용을 필요로 했던 분들에게 도움이 되셨기를 바랍니다. 이번 포스팅은 여기까지 입니다. #외국인 #내국인 #한국 #입국후 #절차 #변경사항 #코로나 #PCR #의무검사중단 #korea #entry #quarantine #information #pre_entry_system #q_code #negative_confirmation #overseas #travel #airport #qcode #pcr #covid19 #testing #suspension

If you look at the Internet, there are cases where it is a jpg file when you save a necessary image or photo, but when you receive it, it becomes a jfif extension. There are cases where it is difficult to check the files because the sort order of the files is different because they have different extensions even though they are received for the purpose of listening or reuse. This problem mainly appears in browsers of the Chromemium family (Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, Opera browser) and does not appear in other browsers such as Firefox. It may not be a big deal, but it can be very annoying depending on the person, so in this post, I will talk about the difference between jpg and jfif and how to solve it to help in this situation. Difference between JPG/JPEG and JFIF Before we talk about JPG image files being saved as JFIF files when saving image files in the browser, let's first understand what JPG and JFIF are. The Joint Photographic Experts Group (JPEG), commonly known as a type of image format, is precisely the joint responsible for the maintenance of JPEG , JPEG 2000 , JPEG XR , JPEG XT , JPEG XS , JPEG XL , and related digital image standards. Talk about the committee. The extension used for images using a lossy compression technique developed for photographic images by the Joint Photographic Experts Group (JPEG) is commonly known as JPG/JPEG. Except for files that record only contents without a fixed format such as text files, information about the format of the file is recorded at the top of the file so that you can know which format was used for the file. In most cases, the format name of the file is the same as the extension, but there are cases where it is different. It is one of the files corresponding to the case where the JPG file is different. no see. So, if you run Paint in Windows and open the file saved as a JPG file in Notepad, you can see the letter JFIF at the top, and you can see that this file is a file using the JFIF format. Why browsers save JPG images as jfifs When downloading a file uploaded as an attachment to a website, the program that handles the download of the file from the website can specify the MIME type and extension that informs the format of the file. However, in the case of an image file included in the website's HTML, it may vary depending on the web server environment used to operate the website or the browser that processes the image. In Windows, MIME types and extensions are stored and managed for each file format used. Of these, two MIME types are used for JPG files. In the past, if Windows used the jpg extension or used jpg or jpeg for both MIME types in Windows, image/pjpeg and image/jpeg are used as MIME types for JPG files based on Windows 10 or 11, which is used recently. Among these MIME types, image/pjpeg is set to jpg extension, and image/jpeg is set to jfif extension. If the browser applies its own extension to the two MIME types used for JPG files, it can be used only with the jpg extension, but since Chromium-based browsers use the extension specified in the MIME type set in the window, the web browser When saving an image file on the site, it is sometimes saved as a jfif or as a jpg depending on the MIME type of the image. Resolution If you want to use only the jpg extension for JPG images, since both jfif and jpg files use the same format, save the image on the website and then open it in an image editing program such as Paint and use it by “save as” or simply You can use it by changing only the extension. Basically, it is solved if Microsoft processes the extension to be jpg in the MIME information included in the registry, but it can be solved simply by editing the extension stored in the registry. In Windows, start > Run > type "regedit" and press the Enter key to display the registry editor. In this editor, go to "HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\MIME\Database\Content Type\image/jpeg" in the tree on the left and the contents on the right Double-click "Extension" in the middle to change the extension to ".jpg". After restarting the browser and downloading the image, you can see that the extension of the JPG file is treated as jpg. However, it should be taken into account that the information may change again when Windows is updated or the browser is reinstalled. I hope this has been helpful to those who needed the information covered in this post. This post ends here. #browser #image #save #jpg #jpeg #jfif #reason #solution

Things you must do before and after entering Korea before September 3, 2022 Before entering the country, take a COVID-19 test and get a negative result and issue a negative confirmation Submit negative confirmation along with registration of quarantine information before entry Receive PCR test within 1 day after entry (in case of positive, quarantine measures) Things you must do before and after entering Korea from September 3, 2022 [Abolition] Before entering the country, take a COVID-19 test and get a negative result and issue a negative confirmation [Change] Registration of quarantine information before entry Receive PCR test within 1 day after entry (in case of positive, quarantine measures) The obligation to submit a negative corona certificate, which was mandatory for entry after September 3, 2022, has been suspended. All foreigners and Koreans only need to register in the quarantine information pre-entry system (Q-Code) before entering the country. As the obligation to submit a negative corona certificate has been suspended, the contents of registration in the quarantine information pre-entry system (Q-Code) have also been changed.. Due to the suspension of the obligation to submit a negative corona certificate, it is possible to save money when entering the country for Koreans returning from overseas trips or foreigners entering for short-term stays. Suspension of pre-entry inspection (PCR, RAT) and submission of negative confirmation From September 3, 2022, the duty of pre-entry inspection and negative confirmation will be suspended for all overseas arrivals regardless of whether they have been vaccinated or not.

If you are symptomatic PCR test at the arrival hall or quarantine facility > If the test result is negative (the same as the procedure for asymptomatic persons, but the PCR test on the first day after entry is considered to be completed) PCR test at the arrival hall or quarantine facility > If the test result is positive (transfer to your home or hospital or living treatment center) If you are asymptomatic Koreans or foreigners staying for a long time > PCR test at a public health center > Isolation if positive > RAT recommendation on the 6th to 7th day if negative Short-term foreigner > PCR test at an airport inspection center or medical institution > Isolation if positive > RAT recommendation on the 6th to 7th day if negative PCR test There are two ways to get a foreigner's PCR test. One is to use the airport inspection station operated by the Iwon Medical Foundation and Myongji Hospital, and the other is to use a hospital in the city. It is convenient for foreigners to use the airport search center in the airport.

Before entering Korea, you need to prepare two things. One is to be tested for COVID-19 and to receive a negative confirmation, and the other is to pre-enter quarantine information. Since there is a process of registering a negative confirmation during the input process, it is recommended to register the quarantine information pre-entry (Q-Code) after being tested for COVID-19. It is possible to save temporarily while inputting, so you can enter until the stage before registering the voice confirmation and proceed with the rest of the process after receiving the voice confirmation. I wrote this post with readability in mind, so there may be some things I haven't covered. If you have any questions or want to know about any of the contents of the post, please ask in the comments or by e-mail, and we will let you know what we can answer. Quarantine information pre-entry system (Q-Code) registration If you register the quarantine information pre-entry system (Q-code) before entering the country, you can quickly pass the quarantine stage that you go through after getting off the plane. Perhaps because the quarantine information pre-entry system is not advertised abroad, it takes a considerable amount of time for foreigners who have not registered before entering the country to fill out the form on the spot, whereas if they have registered in advance, just show the QR code at the quarantine checkpoint to receive a notice and a quarantine confirmation certificate. It took less than 5 minutes to receive. To register the quarantine information pre-entry system (Q-Code) of the Korea Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, visit https://cov19ent.kdca.go.kr/cpassportal/ . Registration of the quarantine information pre-entry system is "01. Agree to the Terms and Conditions > 02. Enter your email > 03. Enter your passport information > 04. Enter your entry and stay information > 05. Enter your quarantine information > 06. Enter your health status > 07. Check your input information > 08.QR code issuance" proceeds in the order. For the registration screen, refer to the sequence of captured images below. After completing the input, you will receive an e-mail with the contents of the picture below to the e-mail address you writed during registration. The mosaic-treated part at the top is a QR code, which you can submit at the quarantine checkpoint. You can check the same QR code that you receive by e-mail on the input result screen of the quarantine information pre-entry system. Upon completion of the inspection by the quarantine screening unit, you will receive a notice and a quarantine confirmation certificate with the following information. Before June 1, 2022, it is duty that PCR test was performed within 1 day after entry is duty, and rapid antigen test was been required on the 6th to 7th days after entry. (The above guide is a guide as of June 1st) After June 1, 2022, you only need to undergo PCR testing within 3 days of entering the country. Those who have completed vaccination - those who have received at least the second dose of WHO-approved vaccine as of the date of entry - are subject to quarantine exemption, and those who have not entered from a country exempted from isolation exemption are subject to quarantine exemption. For details on those subject to quarantine exemption, please refer to the contents of the quarantine exemption section of the posting. Quarantine exemption Those who have received a quarantine exemption letter before June 8, 2022 or have completed vaccination as of the date of entry - Those who have passed 14 days after the second vaccination or those who can prove the history of the third vaccination as of the date of entry - and exemption from quarantine applies Only those who did not enter from an excluded country were subject to quarantine exemption (passive monitoring). But from June 8, 2022 , quarantine exemption has been implemented for all overseas arrivals regardless of whether they have been vaccinated or not. (Source: Korea Centers for Disease Control and Prevention website press release " Isolation exemption for all overseas arrivals regardless of whether or not they have been vaccinated from June 8, 2022 (June 8, 2022 regular briefing) " ) Even if you are subject to quarantine exemption, you must follow the infection prevention rules for 7 days (manual monitoring period). If you do not comply with the infection prevention rules, you may be punished if violations are discovered. The Korea Centers for Disease Control and Prevention website address is https://kdca.go.kr . Information related to quarantine exemption may change depending on the situation, so please check the press release or notice on the Korea Centers for Disease Control and Prevention website, and follow the latest guidelines published at the time of inquiry. However, the guidelines that the pre-entry test (PCR, expert RAT) result must be negative and that the PCR test result must be negative within 3 days after entry are still being maintained separately from the quarantine exemption for inbound travelers. PCR test There are two ways to get a PCR test for foreigner. One is to use the airport inspection center operated by the Iwon Medical Foundation and Myongji Hospital , and the other is to use the hospital in city. It is convenient for foreigners to use the airport search center in the airport. 1. How to use the inspection center at Incheon Airport There is a fee (80,000 won for Korean) at the inspection center at Incheon Airport, and you can reserve a time with Safe2Go Pass and visit the designated time to receive an inspection, or you can test after you can visit and wait. There are a total of 4 inspection centers at Incheon Airport, one each in Terminal 1 and Terminal 2 for each hospital. The website address of the inspection center at Incheon International Airport is https://safe2gopass.com and can be accessed with a web browser on a PC or smartphone. If you take the test in the morning at the airport's inspection center, you will get the result in the afternoon.

The product to introduce this time is Xiaomi's Temperature and Humidity Sensor Pro. This product has almost the same function as the Xiaomi Temperature and Humidity Sensor 2 that I posted earlier. However, in addition to the temperature and humidity sensor function, I needed a product that can check the time, so I bought it together. This product seems to be a suitable product if you want to put a watch in the bathroom, but it is not enough to put only the watch. The function is similar, but there is a slight difference from the Sensor2 product. You can check the details in the contents below. box exterior The box has a picture of the product on the front, similar to Sensor 2, the Xiaomi logo on the upper right, and the product name in Chinese and English on the lower left. On the back of the box, there are product names, specifications, and various certification marks. And at the top there is a part for opening the box. On the upper and lower sides of the product, the functions of the product are marked with icons and in Chinese and English. open box The box can be opened by tearing off the upper part of the back. After opening the box, put the bottom of the box up, The product can be removed by lifting the inner cover upwards. The product is wrapped inside with soft plastic. Components I tried to list all the components I took out of the box. The components include the product body, manual, and 3 types of parts for product installation. Unlike the method that only attaches to the wall using double-sided tape, Sensor 2 can be installed in various ways in the location for installation. It can be installed in a place such as a refrigerator or a nightstand by using double-sided tape, a stand, and a magnet. The manual is in the form of a booklet, so it is easy to read and store the manual. (Of course, after installing it, I don't think I'll ever see it again.. 😅) The manual is written in both Chinese and English. The manual includes instructions on how to install and a QR code with a URL to install the Mi Home app. Appearance Compared to the Sensor 2, it has a more luxurious design. This is the sensor viewed from the front. If you've seen the previous post, you might be able to spot the difference. Can you see it? In addition to the time displayed, the liquid crystal is different from Sensor2. Sensor 2 has a solid color liquid crystal display, while Sensor Pro has an E-Ink display. That's why it seems like it's supposed to use 2 batteries. On the back side, there is an engraved place to attach the double-sided sticker for product attachment. And on the lower side, there is a groove for opening the product cover. Specifications The width of the product was measured to be 110mm. The top and bottom length of the product was measured to be 54.9mm. I didn't take a picture of the thickness of the product, but the thickness was measured to be about 9.6mm. Compared to Sensor 2, it has a thickness of about 3mm. The weight of the product is about 61g. Compared to Sensor 2, which weighs about 21g, it is about 3 times heavier Reviews In order to use the product, the attached film must be removed to discharge the battery. To remove the film, you need to open the cover on the back, starting with the groove on the bottom side, insert your fingernail and pull it up, then rotate the side to open the cover. Open the cover and you will see two CR 2032 batteries in the back. If you look at the top of the back, you can see that there is an external hole for the sensor used for temperature and humidity measurement, similar to Sensor 2. In any case, remove the film attached to the battery and cover the back cover, and the basic process for using the sensor is complete. After that, if you connect the smartphone through the Mi Home app, the installation process is completed. As with the Xiaomi Temperature and Humidity Sensor 2, to prevent the battery from being discharged, the tape must be removed before connecting to the Mi Home. It has a function that displays the time differently from Sensor 2, but if you do not synchronize it with your smartphone, it does not match the current time, so synchronization is essential. To synchronize with the smartphone, enter the Mi Home app, press the + button in the upper right corner, select the sensor category on the screen to select the add product list, and select the icon in row 3, column 1, or select a smart phone near the product. The product search proceeds through Bluetooth connection while the phone is in place, and if you select the searched product from the top, the connection process proceeds. With the sensor near your smartphone, select the product when it appears in the list. After that, the process of connecting with the smartphone is carried out, and when the connection is complete, the process of selecting the installation location of the product is carried out. (The installation location of the product can be selected as the location you have previously set or after adding it) Once the location selection is complete, you can change the name of the device you want, and after the name setting process is complete, the product addition is completed. When you enter the sensor screen for the first time, the background color changes to blue after the process of synchronizing with the sensor, and the synchronized time, temperature, and humidity are displayed. Among the settings, there is a special function called infant mode, so I tried setting that function, but after that, the measurement unit displayed on the sensor changed and it returned to its original state. If you enter the infant mode in the settings, the Korean description explains that a notification message will be sent when the temperature and humidity for infants and children are out of range. Functionally, when the mode is activated in the house where this product is used, it seems to be a function that can help maintain the proper temperature and humidity for infants and toddlers in the house. However, perhaps because this product was released for the Chinese market, when this mode is activated, the humidity is expressed as a percentage, but the temperature is displayed in Fahrenheit (ºF), not Celsius (ºC). I was looking for an option to change the temperature and humidity standards just in case, but couldn't find it. I don't know if I don't care if it's written in Fahrenheit, but I thought it was inconvenient for me to be accustomed to being written in degrees, so I turned off the mode. If you need to activate the infant mode by any chance, you should consider the temperature displayed in Fahrenheit and use it. After the installation of the product is complete, turn on the Mi Home app from a distance that can be connected via Bluetooth and enter the sensor Pro screen to synchronize with the sensor, and you can check the temperature, humidity, and time of the sensor in the app as shown below. If you use it for a long time, you can check the change of the recently changed temperature and humidity as a graph under the currently measured temperature and humidity. After using it for about a month, I am quite satisfied. When using an E-Ink display for the display, it has better visibility and readability compared to Sensor 2 using a normal liquid crystal display, and thanks to the display, I was able to get a more luxurious feeling. Products that use E-Ink displays usually use CR 2032 batteries for more than one year, so this product will also be used for at least one year, so there is no need to worry about replacing batteries. When I bought it, it was $14.54 compared to the Sensor 2, which was $5.75 based on the price, but I think it is better to use the Pro product in many ways. If you are not burdened by the price, we recommend that you purchase the Pro product. #xiaomi #temperature #humidity #sensor #pro #components #appearance #unboxing #reviews #샤오미 #온도 #습도 #센서 #프로 #구성품 #외관 #언박싱 #개봉기 #사용기 #사용후기
